For most it's a tossup between 12 and 15.

For least it's 14, second only by 10.

Congratulations, you're a fucking idiot.

Most: 13
Least: 14

Most: #10

Least: #16

I don't like the look of those eyes.

Old thread is old already.

9 or 13 for most.

16 is least. He looks like a filthy gypsy merchant, but aquatic.

OP, what's the deal with these threads? There was a similar one yesterday. This one looks like a direct continuation.

In any case:
Most -13
Least -12

I liked this thread the first time it was posted.

I do not like it now after it has been posted 12 times.

Most 15, assuming those are birds and not bird-shaped extensions of his body.
Least 14. It's a damn cat. Even if he/she/it isn't screwing around on purpose, that thing can't be reliable.

15 is most trustworthy, because if Disney has taught me anything it's that birds like to sit on good people.

13 is least, because he is so obviously an Ork.

most trustworthy (will not backstab you): #14
least trustworthy (will backstab you): #10

most trustworthy (will not do something stupid): #11
least trustworthy (will do something stupid): #14

I'd go with #14, just prevent her(?) from making any important decisios.

Most: 10 or 13
Least: 11, 12, 15 or 16 all look super untrustworthy

>>12594411
Different portraits dumbass.

I'd have to go with 14 10 and 9 as most trustworthy of the bunch. The least being 15. That said, none of them are above neutral in terms of trust.

>>12594401
Yay, I'm an idiot!

>>12594428
>I'm a dumbass who hasn't bothered to check to see if I know what the fuck I'm talking about.

Most: 11
Least: 14

I think I'd trust either 11 or 15 the most.

12, 10 and 16 all seem traitorous.

On appearance alone? None.

Can't judge by appearances. Can only judge by experience.

I would feel safe with my back turned to #10. #12 looks like an ambassador of sorts, and is sorta tied with #10.

#16 is goofy-looking, but he(?) seems to give the impression that he's intentionally playing off of that. He seems to be the least trustworthy.

>>12594371
Most? 10, followed by 11.

Least? 9, followed by 12.

>>12594473
Same with 11 IMO.

16 is least trustworthy; you can't read lies in unchanging fish eyes.

Most - 13
Least - 14

14 most trustworthy

11 is least

11 most

12 least

I think everyone except the cat woman looks trustworthy.

Maybe I am just naive.

most- 11, hes a fuckin tree. not going anywhere.

least-14, she'll sell your ass out for catnip.

I like your character designs, OP.

9. Probably a sorcerer of some kind. He looks angry. Don't want to mess with this guy.
10. Confused, but cute. I wouldn't think her trustworthy.
11. Bizarre, but not off-putting.
12. The dress makes me think of a cleric or something, and if it wasn't for the horrid teeth/tongue/lobster claw, I would think this character is trustworthy.
13. Monocle, beard, hearts. This guy's a gentleman, even if he's a half-orc.
14. Nya~. Not going to trust her, too playful.
15. Maybe he doesn't care about eating the birds and is going to eat me instead. Color me hesitant.
16. DERP. No. Looks like a fishy shaman, and almost as derp as the lion from yesterday.

Most-10

Least-14 or 15, though 16 kind of looks like he might want to eat me

>>12594518
The lion from yesterday was bro as fuck, I can't believe hardly anyone chose him. #11 is creepy as hell this time, he gives the impression of being placidly and uncaringly evil.

10. She looks lost, and a bit cloudcuckoolandish. Either she's not a threat to me in any possible way, or she's a really damn good actor.
11, 12, 15, and 16 are unreadable to me. They're alien enough I'd simply throw them into the neutral category until I'd some other way of figuring them out.
9 looks dangerous, not that I'm saying he's bad, just that I'd have to know more about him.
13 looks to be more of an old man. Judging by my other beastman friends, I'd say he's probably fairly dependable, though he is looking at me rather suspiciously.
14... I don't know anything about feline types. I know I wouldn't trust my cat, but I don't know anything about this woman.

Anyone got yesterday's pic?

Also, #16 looks like the Zora king from OoT. I hate that fat fuck.

>>12594518

>15 and birds

I know! There are birds that pick stuff out of hippos' and alligators' teeth. But both of them are very territorial and dangerous. Might be the same for #11; naturey stuff can be very unforgiving for not respecting their bubbles.

most 14, least 9

>>12594497
>>12594497

Just to clarify why...

A catperson is somewhat predictable in their mischievousness. As a race they have rarely been described as otherwise.

Trusting in some form of evolution theory, I can predict most of what the others would want as base urges and would likely betray me for, the treefolk however; is highly unpredictable. What would cause plant like to become sentient in the first place besides magic? What would be their wants and needs beyond soil, sunlight, and water. I would be least able to understand 11 and therefore, least able to trust him.

13 most. Look at the heart shaped drapes on his shoulders. This is the like an orc hippy/amish guy.

Least? 14

15 most trustworthy. It's covered in little birds for god's sake. If it was evil, it would have ruthlessly crushed their little bodies already.

16 is the least trustworthy. I don't trust a fish frog man, especially one that smiles at me with such fucking dead, soulless eyes.

You can probably trust 9. He looks like he'd crawl through barbed wire rather than go back on his word.
Can't trust 16, as it is a nigger.

Anyone mind posting the 1-8 picture?

As a DM, I love these threads. That aside, I'd trust 9, because he looks like he's got both experience and guts.

For the same reasons, I wouldn't trust 10 at all. She might have good intentions, but even just a little torture would convince her to betray me.

>>12594371

10 and 13 appear to be the most trustworthy. 15 and 16 appear to be the least.

>>12594651
Are you kidding? 15's head has a cactus like stucture, those birds are probably symbiotic with him and help clean off the gristle from the people he eats. He's probably not evil, but he is very certainly dangerous.

10 Is the most trustworthy, looks like she'd do anything for you, help you in anyway she could.
Of course depending on how dark the setting is she could give up your information, but you could plan for that.

16 Is the least trustworthy. Hes the only one with death imagery and those eyes man, those eyes.

9 would be the next most trust worthy, simply because you would have to earn his respect first.

12 would be next least, simply because he looks like a merchant, or some sort of salesman.

9, 12

>>12594763
But the question isn't about Dangerousness, its about trustworthiness. Could you trust it to keep a secret? Providing you've already found a way to keep it from just automatically eating you.

Okay looking at 10 more closely that bitch has some kind of mind-control collar on, I am not trusting her.

>>12594724
9 is Jiub.

You know it to be true!

>>12594791
I was trying to point out that it's not about 'evilness' either. I'm not even convinced #15 has non-animal intelligence, I wouldn't trust it at all.

>>12594791
Not just keeping secrets, but also trusting it to not murder and/or eat you or abandoning you in a pinch.

most trustworthy 13
least 16

12 clearly can't keep his fucking mouth shut, literally. It'd snitch in a heartbeat.

13 and 15 seem okay, though.

9 looks trustworthy
16 can fuck right off
14 looks like my cat (The derp eyes, at least)
I don't like the looks of 11, 12 or 13, but 15 actually looks peaceable enough.

10 looks like a harmless loony

>>12594801

That's SAINT Jiub to you, bub!

>>12594801

#9 looks like some sorta combination between Dak'kon and Darth Sion to me.

>>12594865
Truly the best of bros.

can someone post the original 1-8?

>>12594944

>>12594371

not sure if 16 is male or female.

I would trust 13 most, he is the look of a quite man of the cloth.

least trustworthy 14, because she looks like a cat girl ~nyaa type, and you don't want to depend on them doing anything right.

I can't help but laugh at how much /tg/ automatically assumes that the monstrous ones are the ones that need to be trusted. Too many comic books and hollywood blockbuster actionfilms have them hard for the antihero/antivillain concept.

15 I could trust... to try to devour my pancreas the moment my back was turned... or maybe they'd just not bother, and come right for it. 12 is not much better.

16 looks like a Rape elemental or something.

11 looks lawful-neutral, I'm immediately thinking "ents" from LotR.

9 is YOU N'WAH! Could probably only trust him as long as he profits. My first thought is "mercenary"

10 I'd assume to be too helpless for most situations. I'd trust her not to stab me, but wouldn't trust her to *not* cow to the slightest intimidation

14 I wouldn't really trust. My immediate thought is "Kender-like personality". Still, the character design is getting me all HNNNNG. While I can't stand furries that have snouts, most of the Japanthromorphic designs are pretty much just "Human Girl that happens to have animal ears and smiles with a colon-three", rather than "Upright dog who thinks he's people" you find in the west.

Most trustworthy is the Orc-looking character in 13. Sure, he's an orc, but he also reminds me of a priest for some sort of vegas wedding chapel. The only thing you'd have to worry about is him marrying you to 16 during a night of hard drinking.

Also, I enjoy the ribbon comics, and miss the weekly episodes.

This one is really very interesting compared the the previous 8, a lot more focus on reaction to alien faces I guess? Regardless your art really is nice, Ribbonfag, it's good to know you're not a hack who only does cheese cake.

Anyway:

9 looks hostile on initial glance but that's mostly reaction to the scars, he's grim but looks steadfast as well. He's also shirtless which suggests a lack of status, within humanoid culture at least. I'd trust him in a fight.

10 looks like she's taken aback, it feels like she doubts me to some degree. I'd say she's no back stabber but she's not going to be with me 100% either. Might go over my head if she thinks I'm wrong.

11 looks kind of like a muppet, like the cookie monster. He doesn't look overtly threatening but I don't feel comfortable about him either.

12, man I really can't judge. I think his face is stuck like that and the limb on his head is for gesturing to show emotion, or something. Complete unknown.

13 seems like a good sort, I'd shop at his store/take his advice/do some jobs for him. Looks reserved but he's an old orc so that's understandable. I'd trust him with money.

14 is an interesting one, she doesn't look as immature or frivolous as your typical cat girl is. Yeah, surprisingly I'd say she can be trusted quite well.

15? I doubt it's even intelligent, not evil but nothing with teeth like that is going to be friendly. Absolute predator even if it is sentient.

16.... Do not know what to make of it. It's either going to sacrifice me to it's volcano god and eat me or it wants to know if I like surfing.

tl;dr

14 most trustworthy, then 9/13. 15 for least trustworthy. Also, interesting aquatic theme.

Most: 13. He strikes me as a guy who is fussy about rules and regulations.
Least: 16. That smile is 1000 flavours of smarmy con man.

N/ Trust: 10, 14, 16

Trust:9, 11, 12, 13, 15

I try not to judge a book by their Cover...

>>12595027
>"I would trust 13 most, he is the look of a quite man of the cloth."
Thats exactly why you SHOULDN'T trust him. He's a shyster and a pedo.

i'd trust 10 or 13

least trustworthy would probably be 14 and 16

8,9

Comrades to the bitter end.

I'm paranoid. So i can't trust any of them. at all.

>>12595132

Hey, he isn't Catholic, and maybe he didn't enter the priesthood in order to cover his homosexuality and/or pedoness, because whatever faith he is part of doesn't require chaste clergy and is fine with the gays?

10, she's the only human.

>trusting a woman with anything

I'd gamble on the monsters.

>>12595216
If anybody are backstabbing pricks, its humans.

Then again, I don't think she'd be the type to backstab her allies, but that doesn't mean she wouldn't puss out in a clinch or accidentally leak important information. Basically, not hardened enough.

15.
That thing with teeth for a face and the birds.

Cool. Now I only need about two more sets, and I can have a whole party.

09 - Lots of scars and a rather mean look, but that doesn't exactly mean he's totally untrustworthy. Maybe just clumsy...?
10 - She looks shocked at the notion, which might strike some as suspicious. Then again, we'd likely be just as quick to suspect her of treachery as we would to bone her.
11 - Some sort of cycloptic treant... it'd probably make for a good familiar or underling, but to trust it?
12 - You just lost my vote...
13 - This one... confuses me. Orcs are typically pegged as savages, and I've never seen one with a monocle or a shawl... one with hearts on it, no less. I'm watching you...
14 - Some sort of catfolk... well, it could be worse, but I wouldn't trust her around shiny things, at least. The rest is debatable.
15 - He just keeps those birds around as a quick snack, doesn't he?
16 - The smile says "friend", but the eyes say "I'm gonna fuck you with a spiked club the second you turn around".

From most to least:
11 → 14 → 9 → 10 → 13 → 15 → 16 → 12

Least is 14

16 looks like he could be most, but at the same time, I wouldn't trust him because he looks creepy. 10 seems trustworthy, but also looks like a cover. I'd trust 9 just because he looks more annoyed to be bothered than guilty of anything.

The interracial ones are hard to judge though. 11, 12, 15 are probably best judged by their own race who can see their expression more accurately.

Here's them all together.

>>12595401
My summary.

I would trust 14.

As mai waifu. :3

>>12595568
>shaven neckbeard
>gay orc

I lol'd hard.

Is there a bigger version of any of these?

13 and 11 would make awesome character portraits.

>>12594974

#2 looks like a decent guy who has fallen on hard times, and is kind of troubled about his dilemma. Provided I was helping him out, I could probably trust him.

9 is the most trustworthy, just look at those eyes and try to tell me you don't see intense levels of bro, honor, and bravery.

Least is 12. Cleric of chaos, no doubt.

11 is the most, maybe 12. He looks jovial enough.
Wouldn't trust 16 with shit.

1. trustworthy. He has a winning smile.
2. Shifty pothead. No dice.
3. DERPlion. I won't expect him to stab me in the back, but he's probably a fuckup.
4.This guy seems legit, however, devil horns usually means he's a shithead. Gotta use detect evil.
5. young girl. Will either stab me in the back or DERP up my plans. No dice.
6. Grumpy Turtleman. Seems kind of like an asshole. No way, jose.
7.Bedroom eyes elf. Trying to seduce me, probably to steal my kidneys. No way.
8.INTENSESTAREdwarf. Seems kind of creepy. avoid him.
9. Scarface drow or something. Also creepy.
10. Confused glasses girl. Does not seem outwardly malicious, probably scatterbrained, will not trust with explosives, magic items, or money
11. Treeclops. This guy seems friendly, plus, he's a tree. He gets a pass.
12. Sadcrabface. I dont' want to deal with your problems, stop waving at me.
13. Orc Marriage councilor. No way, bro, I ain't getting involved.
14. NYAAAAAH.
15. Urchin guy. Scary. Will avoid.
16.Derpfish. Completely retarded, malicious grin, definate no-no.

15 most because you can trust somedaye he'll probably try to eat your fucking face.

10 least because she doesn't need those glasses, it's clearly an attempt to make herself seem less threataning and as such she should be viewed as the least trustworthy.

Most to least trustworthy:

10, 9, 15, 14, 11, 13, 12, 16

10 is just... completely disarming. Nothing about her betrays any reason to distrust her at all. That in itself could be a reason, but I choose to ignore it.

9 seems to just have the 1000 yard stare. He's been through a lot, and life has hardened him. He'd like Broof from Doraleous, if Broof were an actual war veteran. Doesn't smile much, but is a total bro.

15 just seems like a natural creature or fae that looks menacing. Of course, it's totally possible that it just likes birds, and would eat me the first chance it got, but as it stands, it seems pretty tame, if not intimidating.

14 seems like she'd be more trouble than she's worth, unless she was a nympho or something. Even then, I'd still have to rescue her silly ass every other week.

The rest... rub me the wrong way. 16 is evil incarnate, and you can't convince me otherwise.

>>12595568
i lolled.

15 is clearly the most trustworthy, fucker's so nice birds will land on him. Shit, you gotta earn that kinda respect from birds.

I can trust 10 not to lie to me intentionally, but I'm not trusting her to do anything useful.

In terms of general trust-y-ness, 13. It's the monocle, I swear. I wouldn't trust 16 or 11. 16 because god damn I can't trust that face, and 11 because I dislike nature-based things as too reliant on 'natural' and against anything that isn't.

I trust 9 and distrust 12. Guy is probably some kind of mutant cultist from a mutant cult that makes mutants.

Fuckin' muties.

1. Reminds me of a forest spirit, minor forest god. Trust not to fuck me over for shits and giggles. If we ever disagree on environmental policies, keep one hand on the hilt
2. Nihilist spoiled nobleman's son. Smile and nod, get away before he wants me to do anything.
3. Goofy guy. Probably won't stab me in the back but I'd not rely on him as an ally.
4. Smile seems sincere. I'd trust it as long as it didn't have an advantage over me. Would probably fuck if female.
5. Young girl, probably naive and trusting. Would trust while in the city, would protect when outside. would NOT rely on her to be useful. would fuck.
6. Grumpy toad. probably wants me to rid his swamp of some sort of pest but try to get away from paying me. Don't accept hospitality, be polite and keep my back free.
7. Seems like a nice girl. If she had a reason to look at me like that, I'd trust her (just saved her cat or returned the necklace her father gave her). Would fuck
8. Dwarf, seems sad rather than grumpy (but then most dwarfs are grumpy all the time). Would trust, would accept hospitality.

>>12595998
9. "Wake Up. We're Here. Why are you shaking? Are you ok? Wake up. Stand up. There you go. You were dreaming. What's your name?" Veteran Soldier. seems experienced enough not to want to force a confrontation unless necessary. Trust if we're on neutral ground, wary otherwise.
10. Wide eyed girl (literally and figuratively), probably first time she's seen an adventurer. More or less same as 5. Though I'd be wary of her if we met in an uncivilized area. Would still fuck but not spend the night.
11. Treant. Would trust.
12. Be very wary, hand on hilt unless within city limits. Would not make a pre-emptive strike but would keep on good footing at all time.
13. Old orc. Monocle makes city-orc most probable. Seems weary and tired. Trust.
14. Catgirl. Playful eyes and smile, probably a prankster. Bell piercing in ear makes her an unlikely thief. Keep eye on but trust, relax and play with. Would fuck.
15. HOLY FUCK! Assume defensive stance, hand on hilt but don't draw yet. If it makes any form of aggressive movement, draw sword maintain assume a low guard. No pre-emptive strike. Might fuck (no oral).
16. OH SWEET LORD! Draw sword, long guard. Try to find an exit. If it offer placating actions, lower guard but keep alert.

13 is the most, hands down, no contest. he's contemplative, cautious and world-weary. He will correctly judge the gravity of any situation and get shit done.

16 may or may not be a total bro who has your back. It's either that or he's a psycho killer clown.

15 Seriously, how the fuck am I supposed to make any social judgment about utter alien?

14 I can trust only with my steaming and fresh genetic material.

>>12596068

10 can have some genetic material too if she's interested.

Am I the only one who is completely wary of #11 the tree dude? Unnerving stare, disconcerting half-smile?

>>12596134

he's a tree.

You can't not trust a tree....

you just.... try to be aware when it falls

9 - Looks irritable, but not unreliable. I'd trust him, but make sure I don't get on his nerves.

10 - Seems harmless, but either cute or annoying. Likely both. Probably best to avoid her for the sake of my sanity.

11 - Eh. Looks nice enough... but something about him unnerves me. Best not to get close.

12 - Seems like a pretty friendly guy (no, really; look at that expression, and the claw even looks like it's waving), but perhaps not trustworthy. A bit of a... friendly used car salesman look in a way, only some sort of priest.

13 - An orc... with a monocle. And heart-patterned clothing. ...Sure, why not?

14 - Hm. Looks like a typical enough catgirl, if perhaps not as energetic. Probably best to get to know her first, in case she's a thief or something, but afterwards... likely as reliable as anyone.

15 - This thing LOOKS dangerous, yes, at first. But once you look closer... well, the birds are hardly frightened, and its pose looks more innocently curious than anything. If it doesn't attack, trust it, but never turn your back on it.

16 - ARGH. No. Thank you, OP. I'll be seeing this thing in my nightmares. ...Not trustworthy, obviously. Is that a skull necklace?

I enjoy these threads, but I do hope there is some statistical data you are taking from these, with a decent methodology.

Seeing a pseudo-study of neckbeards and their automatic reactions to facial characteristics would be very cool.

For the question at hand, considering

Most:

10, looks legitimately surprised, hard to fake, at least for me, would not really have a reason to distrust.
9, Combination of worried or irritated, /shrug
14, a cat is fine too,

Neutral:

13, Orc, niffty, but maybe temperamental, hearts seem to 'protest too much' as the saying goes
15, Has physical characteristics of a vicious predator, but his is impossible to read being so alien, I would give him/her the benefit of the doubt until his/her actions showed intent.

Least:

11, wut
12. um
16, Jesus fucking Christ, stop looking at me.

Anyways would want to talk to them first.

Most Trustworthy: #15 and #12
Least Trustworthy: #10 and #14
Bitches and whores.

The tree dude, doesn't look too bright.

Fukken xenos everywhere. I hate trying to evaluate xenos.

From most trustworthy to least:

13 is weird. He's an orc, but he looks perfectly civilized. His expression isn't hostile, and god knows his garb isn't either. All in all, I think I'd trust him. He's not a demon or anything, just an orc.

10 Looks pretty trustyworthy. As long as she has a somewhat decent reason for giving me that surprised look, I'd trust her. If not, I probably wouldn't, because that means she's got some sort of problem with me likely.

11 looks strange. Is he actually smiling or is his mouth stuck like that? But his expression SEEMS welcoming, and nature spirits are usually not super evil.

9 looks fucking dangerous. How much that worries depends on which side he's on. If he's on my side, I'd trust him with just about anything. He doesn't exactly seem the deceptive type, just the angry type.

14 I am biased about, because cats are fucking sociopathic. Thus I am disinclined to trust anything cat-like. That said, her actual expression seems pretty friendly... but again, with catfolk, I don't trust that it's not a "I want to toy with you and stab you til you bleed to death" expression.

12 and 15, HOLY XENOS BATMAN. Terrifying motherfuckers, both of them. Of the two of them, 12 looks slightly less threatening due to clothing which assures me he's at least SOME kind of civilized (even if that civilization possibly likes to eat mine). In either case, do not want.

16 GAH KILL IT. Crazy ass staring fish freak thing with a skull pendant? NO THANXS. Probably kill me soon as I go to sleep.

If my interactions with friends and girlfriends (inb4 no gf, enjoy your hand) have taught me anything, it is this:

Trustworthiness is not a function of looks.

I'd watch my back around any one of them if I was an adventurer. Too bad I'm a fa/tg/uy behind a computer.

Trustworthiness is wholly unrelated to physical appearance and as such I decline to comment

[spoiler]Yes I know that's the point, shut up[/spoiler]

2 & 14 together would make some kind of hilarious odd couple scenario where the jaded guy is putting up with the hyperactive catgirl. She is attentive and fawns all over him, but he sees her as retarded and simple. Eventually a tragedy strikes and she dies, and he finds a note on her corpse that reveals her mission was to find a suitable prince for the cat empire throne.

this is very 'men in black'

The key word is "seems."

You can't judge "by" appearances, but you can judge appearances. In fact, it's something you can't ignore, because no matter how open minded you'd like to be, you still have to take into account other people's reactions.

Most - 11. He's a happy treefolk.
Least - 14. She's a happy catfolk.

Untrustworthy: 16. Skull necklace, dead stare.

Most: 11. I automatically trust trees.

The only one I trust is 9. He hates me, and I can trust him to do that.

1 Seems friendly, maybe too friendly, trust unless he does anything suspicious.
2 If he's not a shifty rogue, then an insufferable prick, best to avoid.
3 Possibly insane, must investigate further.
4 Seems nice enough, the smile looks sincere.
5 Looks too naive to be shady, probably a cloudcukoolander.
6 Seems like a grumpy bugger, but probably doesn't care much to have any schemes.
7 Drunk... also, you can't trust elves
8 However, you can allways trust a dwarf
9 A warweary veteran, he looks like a friendly guy with a gruff exterior.
10 Under a spell perhaps? Probably avoid.
11 Should be friendly probided I stay on his good side.
12 Lovecraftian preist... Trust, but don't turn a blind eye
13 Probably peaceful, a merchant/craftsman perhaps? Trust.
14 Can't trust cats, just like elves.
15 If those birds feel safe, why shouldn't I?
16 Dude... stop staring at me... It's creepy...

Oh wow, look how friendly this crocodile is! He's a true bro.

>>12599989

I see you rank trust by how much you want to fuck the subject. A poor unit of measure at best.

I suspect the idea with this group, as opposed to the last, is to see if any noticeable difference can be made with clever use of accessories and other decorations.

What's untrustworthy about 14? She seems nice and capable, and her being a cat is a plus, not a minus. She's easily the most trustworthy of the lot.

16 is also pretty trustworthy. Sure, he has fish eyes, but that's because he's A FISH. And the skull? He also has shells on his necklace, which are probably the same thing to him.

The only one I'd really not trust is 12, because Iya Iya etc.

I just don't trust cultists.

9 - Are you on my payroll?
10 - Are you going to be able to back me up if some goon with a crossbow comes along and says HIT THE DECK YOU SON OF A BITCH?
11 - Were you pretending to be that driftwood I passed earlier and is preventing forest fires in your best interests?
12 - What the fuck are you even.
13 - Are *you* on my payroll?
14 - Are you norther or southern Siamese? I don't mean to discriminate, I just want a reference point.
15 - Don't touch me.
16 - GOBI. GOBI WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE.

>>12594371
That's the shopkeeper from Breath of Fire, isn't it?

Most:11

Least:9

>>12601844
And come to think of it...
Ribbonfag, are you dipping into my 90's JRPG collection?

I find 10, 11, and 13 pretty trustworthy looking. The tree-dude has a goofy-looking grin and is a freaking tree, the chick looks at least business-minded, and the orc looks civilized as all hell. If I had to trust any of those 3, it would probably be 11.

inb4 the OP has all the monsters be monsters this time, just to break our expectations

>>12595568

MOTHER OF GOD

>>12601967
>and the orc looks civilized as all hell.
His heart-covered vest (VEST for christ's sake) says "buttfuck capital of the world" though.

Con artists would have a field day with you lot.

>MFW only one person has said "There's something fishy about number 16" all thread.

I'd rather trust the monsters and the dwarf than the humans and elves.

Except 4, fuck that guy.

Most trustworthy? 11. Man ain't got no teeth. What is he going to do to you. He has a disability. He needs taken care of, that's what he needs.

Least Trustworthy? 10. She looks suprised to see you. 'Why are you not dead' surprised.

I always select these based on the Will Smith rules of engagement though.

This is, quite possibly, one of the worst threads I've seen on /tg/.

Scat porn spam included.

You don't base trustworthiness purely on appearance, or even mostly on appearance. General appearance is, in fact, the *least reliable* gauge of trustworthiness. It's about actual interaction, range of expression, and a lot of other factors. Dammit, /tg/, I thought you were smarter than this.

id trust none of em untill proven other wise. and even then id keep my eye on them 99% of the time the other percent id be reliving my self hence id use a familar to watch them in my stead

14 seems most trustworthy.
15 seems least.

Most: 11
Least: 14

>>12602346
We know that you dumb fuck. But we've only got looks to go on, so we're using those.

9,10, and 14 look trustworthy.
But you can never tell...

>>12602346
Oh wow, it looks like someone's a hippy.

Protip: Cut your hair, take a path, throw out your stupid tie-die, and then maybe the MAN will actually let you get a job.

Just because I personally don't care doesn't mean my customers won't, and having you looking like that would scare them away.

>>12602346
If you weren't autistic, you'd recognize this as a social exercise, probably with interest to aid in character design. The characters' appearance and behavior are strong indicators of their personality, allowing the viewers to make judgements based upon what they see.
So likewise.

13 seems most trustworthy. 14 and 9 are a tie for least trustworthy.

I'm actually inclined to trust 15.

I mean, come on, he's got fucking birds landing on him!

Why does no one trust the catgirl?

>>12602346

This is, quite possibly, one of the worst replies I've seen on /tg/.

Scat porn spam included.

You don't base intelligence purely on participation in a single internet image board thread, or even mostly on participation in a single internet image board thread. A single challenge is, in fact, the *least reliable* gauge of intelligence. It's about actual interaction, range of expression, and a lot of other factors. Dammit, poster, I thought you could work that out.

most: 15
least: 10

Hey OP, hey OP!

What're the chances of you churning out a few dozen of these sort of portraits for stock NPC use?

>>12602573
I think the chances are very hight. They did 8 portraits a day, so if they keep that rate for a week, there could plenty.

>>12602492
Better question: why would anyone trust a cat?

9. Ex-slave, or POW. While I would be inclined to trust him, strong survival instincts may bury honesty from time to time.

10. Student. Until I get to know her, don't trust her as far as I can throw her - I was a college student once myself.

11. Plant. Generally untrustworthy.

12. Merchant. If cash is on the line with a contract, you can trust him... just make sure to check the wording of said contract.

13. Unsure. Can't get a read from this guy.

14. Feline. Can't trust them to follow their word, but their instincts? Every time. Not so much trustworthy as very predictable.

15. If the birds like him, he's okay with me. Trust animals. Always.

16. Nice guy, but don't trust his stories. There's only one person he's ever "mated", and that's his fucking mom. A massive bundle of issues.

>>12602591
My cat was super trustworthy and honest and awesome. We'd chill out like true bros, and was a great companion

He's dead now though. :(

9. Wake up! WAKE UP!
10. ....I'm sorry, I'm new here- how did you just do that?
11. Heeellllllllllllooooooooooo
12. Jahg jagh, I hash mmaaangy goosh tings too buy
13. Don't laugh- me granddaughter knitted it fo' me
14. Whatcha doin'?
15. "......"
16. "Mi cyan 'elp yuh wit dat problem-Yuh inna big chobble."

So Ribbonfag, when you gonna' describe the new characters? I'm curious to see how accurate I was, and the thread is dying down anyways.

1) Looks genuinely friendly, but don't get on it's bad side. Antlers/tusks hurt.
2) Looks too aloof to trust, but he'd be pradictable. "Oh, and these are my servants. Let us in, while armed, we are important." Lawful Neutral?
3) Looks like a goddamned kid in a candy store. I'd trust him to try, but not to succeed. Take him along, and get him some levels. Then, he might be useful.
4) He looks relived and happy, likely that I'm talking to him instead of telling him to go back to hell, daemonspawn. He'll be trustworthy so long as I'm not an asshole to him.
5) Content. Looks like she's just happy to talk to me. With a cloak and some hair-ornaments, she looks like a helpful daughter of nobility. The Anti-#2.
6) Welcome to Sword-Mart, get your shit and get out! If not a shopkeeper, then I can expect him to complain to high hell, but not to betray me.
7 - Before Drinks) What do you want? I just met you. Slut, taking advantage of me? Keep careful.
7 - After Drinks) Ther'll be shex, with them eyesh girl. Lots of 'em! He he...
8) Seen the whole world and not happy. He's not the backstabber type, but I can expect him to go through the adventure half-hearted.
9) Seen the whole world at war. Thousand mile stare. Give him orders and he'll follow them, so long as I keep paying him his share.

>>12603015

10) I'd call this one trustworthy, but not that useful unless she gets out into the world, like #3. Makes me think she's a Lvl 1 Wizard for some reason.
11) He's cool. Not too worried about him changing his attitude too much. Seems glad to be talking to me, so he's not hostile, and not an assassin, as that smile is too obvious.
12) Sure, he's nice and all, but goddamn I will always shudder when he looks at me. Trust, barely.
13) Low trust. Seems like a chaotic neutral. "Hearts and Monacles, old bean!" Might have some nice stories at his age.
14) Moderately trust. Will likely be impulsive, as is her nature. Listen for the bell to know where she is at all times. Otherwise, she seems fine, and excited to get to adventure.
15) Makes me think of Garrus from Mass Effect, but less of a Bro. Sure, the Birds like him, but they like crocodiles and hippoes, both of which can maul people hardcore. Both are also true neutral. Trust like #13.
16) I don't want to know what's going on in your head. I'll act nice, but you're not joining my party. I'm sorry, but we're "Overstaffed" right now.

Most: #4. If he thinks I'll die for him, he'll do the same for me.
Least: #16. No. No no no no no. You are TOO FUCKING HAPPY. Nice try, but you're not gonna eat my kidneys.

To all the "hurr durr you guys are so gullible, you can't judge someone on their looks derp herp" people:

You'd be right if it wasn't for the fact an artist was asking the question. OP is, I assume, going to use what they've learned in order to help develop a character in a VISUAL MEDIUM. Seeing as all you're going to learn about these characters is going to be from a page it's essential to encode as much information into that limited space as possible.

So by identifying trends in how people react to the character designs the artist can adapt what they learn to how they portray a character. So in the future when it comes down to "I want to depict this character as trust worthy" then they can look at the results they've gathered and apply them.

Stop being so bloody autistic and answer the question properly.

>>12603015
>>12603021
you sir are a scholar and a gentleman. i agree with your thoughtful inspections.

Everyone who says 10 or 14 is a fucking weeaboo white knight.

>most
10/14 (possibly 11)
>least
9/13

>>12603136

You should have seen the previous thread: 5 and 7, everywhere. Endless accounts of "I want to put my dick in that so I trust it"

But 14 is easily most trustworthy out of the second batch, when the competition is against 16 and 15 it's not hard to look better though.

>>12603138
>>12603136

9) Can trust him to either not be on your side or betray you. But don't expect a blade in your BACK.
10) Has "confused/broken/naive/posessed" written all over her face. Be weary of this one
11) Could be planning your demise, but will very likely have too alien a mindset to bother or to not point it out to begin with. Can be trusted to the extent it says or sounds like it can.
12) No one trusts zoidberg in any sense other than "will not stab you in the back". But stupidity, bribe, discovering you're tasty? yeah.
13) There could be differences in belief that end in violence, but probably quite avoidable. Probably quite trustworthy.
14) by most cat-race stereotypes, Either is in love with you and completely trustworthy, or is not and a fountain of accidental or deliberate betrayal.
15) The birds imply it has difficulty dislodging the bits of flesh it tears apart. This is a definite carnivore. They do not necessarily imply 'good', but you can probably tell before trust is an issue.
16) evil

10 is the most trustworthy, she seems too clueless to be plotting anything.
16 is the least, that's the least genuine smile I've ever seen.

Number 13 seems like he wants to help me because I am so stupid.

He also has love hearts on his collar.

All the others are untrustworthy, especially that 15.

>"I want to put my dick in that so I trust it"

Works for me. Sex is fun, you should try it someday.

>>12603270

And that's why you're going to end up with your kidneys sold on the black market, anon. But maybe you're right about sex, it's just that my last encounter with your mother gave me something nasty.

>>12603300
Women are whores. Stay classy /tg/.

>>12603321

If your measure of trustworthy-ness is how much you want to fuck a person then I'd say you're the one seeing women as whores rather than, y'know, people with motives and intelligence.

16 is a fucking monster. look at those eyes. cold and dead, like a doll's eyes.
15 is the most trustworthy.

>>12595998
>>12596004
I LIKE you.

>>12595401
1 Not trusting anything with horns.
2 Not trusting emoboys
3 Jesus Christ it's a lion get in the chariot!
4 Not trusting daemonettes
5 Not trusting bizzarro Reimu
6 Not trusting fat Rage
7 I know I shouldn't trust her, but damn me if I wouldn't bang a willing elf
8 Dwarfs are trustworthy, but this looks particularly grudgy, I'm not going anywhere near him.
9 This one is a joke
10 Not trusting fa/tg/irls
11 Too busy finding torches and oil to trust
12 Too derpy to be trustworthy
13 Not trusting homosexual priests
14 I'm aroused but still suspicious
15 Stab it
16 THE HORROR THE HOOOOORROOOOORrrr...

Short
Most trustworty: Catgirl
Least: Fishman
I'd still expect the catgirl to be a boy and to try to rob and kill me tough, which is saying something.

9) He looks like the guy you want to have on your side. I imagine him being a silent type and easily irritated by dumb shit but loyal in the end.
10) Eh, sure I'd trust her to not betray me but I wouldn't trust her in doing some badass task or such
11) Maybe it's because I always play nature-based classes but this guy seems cool.
12) Seems like a well-meaning guy.
13) The orc appears knowledgeable and well-read but from his eyes you can tell he dealt with a lot of strife. I'd probably trust him if I get to know him better.
14) It's a cat, so no.
15) Looks unsettling. I'd be weary of him
16) OH GOD WTF IS THIS

NONE OF THEM ARE TRUSTWORTHY
ALL OF THEM ARE HERETICS

>>12603361
Which we can all determine from a single static picture instead of, y'know, social interaction with the individuals in question.

The derp is strong with this one.

>>12603605

You can keep trying to take the high ground in this one but you're being self contradictory, starting out with "lust = trust, you virgin" then following up with "So you think it's bitches and whores?" and finishing at "it's just a drawing dood".

Other people in the thread have managed to interpret fragments of personality from the static images and take a number of variables into consideration from only the most basic input.

You've see some holes to put your dick in. No consideration for the fact that sex can be a tool of manipulation when you're supposed to be looking for trustworthy characters.

You're a 13 year old boy picking his waifus.

>>BADASS HARDFACED SCARRED ELF... You are somewhat trustworthy... and your scowl is good. You may Live.

>> Cute chick with glasses and a collar... I LOVE when women wear collars... Not being misogynistic, it just find the fashion to be very... cute. Looks bewildered and awed, Probably trustworthy.

Most -> Least

15 - Animals trust him. He also, due to his appearance, doubtlessly knows that he is horribly ill-suited to delicate interpersonal schemings and deception.

13 - Deceit? He's too old for that shit, got no time to pussyfoot around matters. He also wears what he likes, not what makes him more elegant/acceptable. (see: Hearts)

9 - If he was any sort of manipulator, he'd not bear so many scars from having to handle shit personally. He'd also grow his hair longer and wear more clothing in an attempt to downplay his scars, as well as keeping a much more approachable expression on his face. But nope, he doesn't give a shit about what you think of him because he's not out to make you think anything.

10 - It's incredibly difficult to convincingly fake a genuine look of surprise. Also, consider I'm a male that she's speaking to; If her intention was to deceive, she'd have chosen apparel more flattering than clunky, thick-rimmed glasses and that broad, plain(not the alluring type of plain) choker.

>>12603861

11 - Trees. Long-lived. Likely inclined to not involve himself with risky plotting and bullshit, finding more appeal in just minding his own business. If he was inclined to worm his way into people's good graces to further his own interests, He'd undoubtedly prune and groom himself and his branches, etc. to make him appear more noble and majestic.

14 - The muscles high in her cheeks/around her eyes aren't crinkled up: that's not a real smile. I can't get a read on her intent, and someone who's not naturally open and expressive of their emotions has generally become so out of a need to constantly hide them.

16 - I cannot divine its gender. Its garb gives me no indication of its status/wealth/sensibilities and its smile at the mouth matches its eyes far less than 14's matches hers.

12 - Its anatomy is so horrendously impractical as to undoubtedly be the result of a supernaturally affilcted race, meaning that a standard, reliable tendency amongst them to read intent in each other's faces is highly unlikely, and therefore, as it wears the fine vestments of a higher class, probably got where it did by either being ungratefully born into its station of wealth and excess or achieved it through wholly shadow-veiled machinations. Kill this fucker if he proposes to be allies. On the spot, no fucking hesitation.

>>12602346

No shit.

The correct answer is "you can't gauge 'trustworthiness' based on a single image" it is also the most useless and trivial answer.

In the mean time I've answered the OP's question, leveraged my imagination, and got a character portrait, so I'm happy.

>>12602124
>Con artists would have a field day with you lot.

Con artists betray their deception through what they say, and how they answer (or fail to answer) questions concerning their dealings.

Con artists can look like anything.

OK most to least:

13: The orcish priest of love. The motherfucker has had flack all of his life, and works hard to show that he is in good standing. You should trust.

10: The Cactus: This thing will kill you and drink your blood for water.

11: Tree dude, some kind of hippy M.O. Probably doesn't care about anything other than that, so long as everything leaves it alone.

9: Grizzled war vet elf: Trust with your life, but not your money or your wife. Also may have a tendency to backstab as a survival trait.

10: The Clutz. The moment you trust her with something, it will go wrong in some kind of accident, and then she try to help fix while making it worse. Possibly a woobie good for fucking, but not much else.

12: Stoner far-spawn. Gets high, munches on other stoner's brains exclusively. Sits around on couch all day without a job.

16 Fish. Insufferable idiot. Will misinterpret what you ask every fucking time. Will screw up job every fucking time. Would be the star of a children's cartoon for such antics.

13: Catgirl. All catgirls are" LOL so randumb!" when young, but this one looks old enough to exploit people maliciously. Beware when the predator smiles and all that.

Awaiting OP to explain these new characters

9, because he looks like St. Jiub.

Most: 10
Least: 11, 12, 15, 16. Fuckin' xenos.

>>12604745
It's just artist insight, which probably counts for less than what everyone else observes, because I'm acting on prejudices that exist even before the picture's finished. But, I'll go ahead, because, like I just said, it doesn't matter all that much.

9. I tried to make him super stern, but he ended up just "kinda" stern. I group him with 8 in terms of trustfulness.
10. Originally, she was smiling and had a skull motif, but I think that pushed it too far in one direction. As she is now, I think the glasses really dominate her persona, and I can't think of her beyond being on the level of a kindly librarian.
11. His eye at first was a lot friendlier looking, and he looked so friendly you'd want to hug him. Now, I don't trust that eye for a second.
12. The hat. Even despite him being all alien and monstrous, I can throw that all away by just him being a different species. But that hat. It's like a mix between a ushanka and the pope hat. I don't know, but I'm wary. He seems like he'd try to convert me to his cult.

13. Grim orc? Plus monocle? Hmm... uh... heart shawl! I think the heart shawl really makes him who he is. I envision him as a grumpy ass, but he loves his family to the point where he wouldn't just not refuse an odd gift, he'd wear it (albeit reluctantly).
14. She's cute, but not in a purely demure manner. How can you not trust her? I felt odd, adding her in, because I thought she just seemed way too trustworthy, and she'd upset any sense of balance.
15. Monster with birds. Not exactly very deep, but I do think that the birds do give him a kinder edge than they would a crocodile. If he had a class, it would probably be druid, and you could trust him to be all naturey. Though, he's definitely a predator, so I hope he doesn't eat people.
16. I thought most people thought fat, jolly people were trustworthy. Apparently, giving them fish eyes, fish lips, and an otter skull makes him the spawn of the devil. I don't know, but he seems pretty friendly to me.

In the end my personal opinion is, from most to least,
14,13,9,10,15,16,11, 12

>>12605117
>>12605122
I find it interesting to make my prejudices, and then see what sort of persona you were aiming for when you began drawing them. As for reading other people's observations, that's most of the fun in this thread. It's almost like watching someone watch a movie.

Most is 13, he has fucking hearts on his scarf. Least is 16, that shit is just disturbing. Nothing sane smiles like that.

>>12594371
It says something about me that I'm the most aroused by 15, doesnt it?

>>12606990
Are you that weirdo who keeps requesting thri keen?

I'm going to trust 14, just to be different.

>>12608209
No, that's me and two other people that keeping doing that. (I think. If it IS one of you fellow chitinfags aroused by 15 then no judgements from my end)

If it makes you feel better, I find fifteen kind of scary and distrustful looking. That's not to say that the character can't be charming or a bro, but that's what my gut instinct tells me.

>>12606938
Yeah it's pretty interesting.

I still say I wouldn't fucking trust 14. Cats are sociopaths.

Do you know why they play with food? Because they're afraid of it. If you disable a cat's fear response it'll go straight for the kill instead. This basically means the playing with food behavior is meant to slowly wear down cornered prey until it's completely incapacitated... then om nom nom.

Also, everything in this:
http://www.cracked.com/article/226_6-adorable-cat-behaviors-with-shockingly-evil-explanations/

>>12608500
I am half convinced that people will never truly understand everything a cat does. Regardless, these creatures shall lie on my chest and be stroked.

I would only put my trust in 9 or 11.. The rest just look too herpa derp.

For least, I'll have to go with 10 and 12. Number 10 just looks completely blank and number 12 is the fucking KING of derp.
